I had a pretty good weekend despite watching AH sleep through most of it. Yesterday at church, he asked me to go the alter and pray with him. Although he prayed out loud and I heard my name or the word "wife" here and there, I could not hear his prayer.
Last night he got angry with me because I mentioned all the projects he should have been able to do while he was unemployed...This morning, I get an e-card saying how much he loves me, wants this work and that the first step was admitting he was powereless....and he is admitting and taking responsibility for where his (our) life is today compared to this time last year. I want to be hopeful but we all know that hope is a scary thing when we are investing our dreams in an addict.
I too, am tired of parenting. I have three other kids to raise and they, at times are more self-sufficient and responsible than he is on most days and they don't talk back!
Love the thread. I hope to see more posts!
